All you have to do is drink a glass of beer morning(before breakfast) and before bedtime.

This will for sure cure you Corona virus infection.

Princess Cruises does not have ship of that name. Ship quarantined in Yokohama is Diamond Princess (company uses "Princess" as suffix, not prefix).

Looks like the journalist got the ship names mixed up.

Quote:
Secretary of Defense Dr. Mark T. Esper is expected to support a request from the Department of Health and Human Services which asked DOD to identify military installations near 11 major airports that could house additional passengers, should HHS facilities become filled. These are tertiary locations, and HHS already has primary and secondary locations identified that are not DOD facilities. ...


Under the request, DOD support at each location will be limited to providing housing support for up to 20 people as they undergo a period of quarantined observation. The department will also provide office space for several HHS personnel and their equipment through February 22, 2020.

Doesn't make sense to fly them inland and if the virus spreads you will know why.

California is far enough

But the electoral college allows the heartland states higher representation per capita. Let's not deny them their share....

I see where you are going with this, but without the electoral college the great state of California would decide all national elections for years to come.

So with that in mind let us allow the great state of California to contain this spreading virus to just their state.

I made a mistake in my last comment.

Instead of posting a link from iflscience about this ridiculous conspiracy I created a funny story

Nah. Not bleach laced.
What would work is a bit of bleach mixed with ammonia.
My not cure the virus but you'd not have to worry any more about catching it!

I'm waiting to see if Wright-Patterson is a DOD area to bring infected to.
They store Aliens there so it should be a good place.

When you transport infected patient, viruses do not implify fall out of window. Following proper procedures when handling patients is much more critical than physical location of quarantine facility. In my local hospital such facility is located immediately upstairs from emergency room which minimizes contact with other patients and staff.


Situation is somewhat different with thousands of passengers and crew onboard a cruise ship but even then only those in precautionary quarantine stay onboard. Its simply practical question as its cheaper (to society, not cruise line) than moving everyone to purpose built quarantine facility.

Wanna go cheap? Send the ship out into deep waters and sink it.
Watch the Movie Contagion.

I'm not too convinced that it would be cheper option. I see a lot of potential litigation opportunities there especially if you involve American courts and lawyers into it.

How cheap will it be if people in California and other States start sueing to keep infected out?


In years past there were places for Leporecy.
